Pokéball stickers are wonderful cosmetics that have finally made a return to the series. They let you outfit your Pokéball with a variety of fun effects whenever it releases your Pokémon into the field, adding some extra personality to your playthrough!

Where they’re found

The better question to ask might be wherearen’tthey found? Pokéball stickers are found around every corner of Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.

The most notable place to find stickers would be from beating theGym Leadersof the Sinnoh region, but you can get them from plenty of other characters as well. There’s even a random NPC on Route 209 that gives you a few. Your best bet if you want more stickers is totalk to as many NPCs as you can!

How to use them

You’ll first need to beat down your first pair of Team Galactic grunts inJubilife City. Immediately afterward, a friendly woman will run up and give you the ability to apply stickers to your Pokéballs.

In your menu, you’ll find a newBall Capsulesoption. Once in, select a capsule, select the sticker design you want to apply from the bar at the top, then you can place it on one of the squares below.

You can also place stickers on the capsule in 3D mode, letting you more precisely place where you want the effects to appear. To do this, pressYon the capsule select screen. You can put up to twenty stickers on every ball.

you’re able to useRto swap to more rows of stickers (if you have more), and you can use theright thumbstickto swap to the back of the capsule. And if you want to see how the capsule will look when activated, just press+!

You can have up to12 designssaved at once. Unfortunately, each design can only be assigned to asingle Pokémonat a time, and each sticker can only be used onone capsuleat a time. You can get around the first problem by creating multiple of the same design, but you’ll need to put in some effort to find more of your desired stickers for that (which is also the solution to the second problem).
